Well, this town is waiting to explode
There is an Avian Flu outbreak in British Columbia in chickens. They are burning the dead chickens near the town I'm in. Residents are pissed off about it, this morning the BC ministry of Agriculture said they don't care and they'll be burning them here anyway.

Residents are talking about physical action. It's a powderkef right now, we'll see what happens.

Just thought I'd update you folks.

2. that reminds me of the time the cops burned all the pot
they had confiscated over a few year period in a HUUUGE incinerator in a town on Long Island in the early 1970s...the WHOLE freakin' Island smelled like pot for miles and miles around the incinerator...

We thought it was very very funny..:hippie:

Not a Tern was left unstoned.

6. Tell 'em that's how the Spanish flu epidemic of 1918 started
'though it was manure rather than dead animals.
